There's no such thing as a writer that doesn't write. I constantly remind myself of that little homily. I am an aspiring published author, but spend most of my time managing my life as a program manager in the telecommunications industry and raising three children.

I am a life-long reader and lover of books. I can remember my first Dr....more »

    Tumrani,
    Please drop by the group Mentoring Men. We may have gone off the dead end with political discussions but we have many on-going discussions and we'd love your input. Also please mark the discussion box so you can be notified of new discussion posts as you desire.

    Walter Mosley's new book, The Right Mistake, is another (good) one about Socrates Fortlow. I love Walter Mosley's books (most of them). Socrates is a character who I just can't seem to let go. Thanks for the compliment on my shelf. Is there such a thing as a black bibliophile?

    Tumrani, I see that you have a great bookshelf. Perhaps you can add some books to the group shelf We've Read in the Mentopring Men group.

    Hello, what is "no problem," are you the writer of the post about the womans book, if you are you are, your welcome to put it on our shelf as it is dealing with womans issues, but honest it is not good just on the womans post page and we must keep the group woman only or woman will not feel free to discuss personal private issues,

    Hi Tyrone,
    Just thought I'd drop you a note reminding you that now would be a good time to query a few magazines pitching a personal essay you could write for October when African Americans commemorate the Million Man March. Most magazines have a six month lead time, according to Writer's Market, but go on and pitch it now. Also consider pitching community newspapers about two weeks before the Oct. 15 anniversary. I think your reflections would be particularly interesting.

    Have a great week!

    You are correct that a writer writes. I submitted an application to be a children's writer-in-residence for the public library and found it difficult to select the 15 page sample of my novel to send. I've also sent work out to e-zines. Have you sent manuscripts out?
